- A group of golden lion tamarins were released into their natural habitat but most did not survive. The researchers found most were very underweight, presumably due to a lack of food availability. Using the information provided above, What is a possible solution to this human impact problem before releasing more tamarins into this habitat?arrow_forwardEcological footprint is the product of three factors: • population size, ● intensity of resource extraction, ● intensity of waste production. Each of these factors puts strain on our food systems. Search for a strategy human populations or individuals can make to reduce one of the three factors that contribute to our ecological footprint. Practice good Initiative skills as you consider strategies that could be specific to a particular part of the world. How would this help our food systems to be more effective at producing quality food?arrow_forwardIn a grassland ecosystem, a rabbit consumes 1000 kJ of plant material.
